A member asked:
Is floortime an effective therapy for autism? can it be used as an alternative to aba?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: ABA is much more than floor time. While floor time, playing with your child on their term, is valuable for any child, ABA is a more structured and intensive process that is individualized to the child, understands and addresses the antecedents to behaviors that impede learning, is based on solid science, learning theory, and promotes skills that generalize into every aspect of the child's life.http://www.autismsupportnetwork.com/news/what-aba-now-really-autism-33299272
